You should do more in the SC2 community, I'm sure more of the major tournaments would LOVE to have you as their floor announcer or hell you could even take up guest commentating roles.

Something to consider. We can hope right?


Yes we totally need a gold terran commentator lol.

Decent article. Your own website looks rather adult tara..


Husky and DJWheat are both lower level players but their commentary is still good. I think TB is like Gold or Plat as well.

Tara would make an awesome color commentator because she DOES know the game, maybe not as well as Apollo or Artosis but she does know it well enough to give a different perspective on what's going on.


Thank you! *Blush*

I don't know the game enough yet IMO, but that's just my prerogative. I want my casters to know the game, even if their role is that of a play-by-play entertainer. Getting a job as a caster now would just look pretentious, like I am not working for it. I want to show that I care enough to actually fucking play and get better.

Really? You're suprised people think you do "porn" when the websites you link to end up like this? $20 for 3 months access to not-porn. Not totally flaming, but cmon now. "Discreet Billing" woohoo!

Jesus Christ what is wrong with my site on your browser!? Running Internet Explorer or something sub-par? Totally not flaming!

The site is set up by a company that does both nude and non-nude model sites. I am looking for a company to do something more tuned toward what I want, but I don't think it's too far-fetched to pay for a fan site. If you want to support me and like to see content or read my diaries, it's a great place to do so.

Very similar to anyone taking donations or asking for some kind of subscription fee via TwitchTV. No one is making you pay or donate, it's just something nice someone can do for a model they admire, and they get content and fun stuff for doing so.

I define porn by blatant sexual acts meant ONLY for masturbatory use. I don't even consider Playboy porn. If it has some kind of vision or artistic content, or the subject is not engaging in sexual activity, it's not porn.

Back on topic, please. ^^

It's actually Chrome browser. (Link). I guess if you don't consider Playboy porn, then your definition of porn is what most define as "hardcore porn". What you are selling is softcore porn access ... for masturbatory use... oh I'm sorry, for your fans. Nothing wrong with that, targeting the "nerd" demographic isn't too terrible an idea either. Just wish nerds had more disposable income, and less knowledge how to get content for free.

As for getting back on topic, it's pretty clear at the end of the article what the topic is about: You and getting the folks who read this forum to masturbate to you and hopefully subscribe/support you monetarily. You are pretty attractive, airbrushed and augmented and all, but don't pretend to be here not alluding to "play SC2 and you can play with these!".

Doesnt seem to be porn. And softporn still has sex. Unless you consider lingerie model porn too ?

Decent article, I admit i was surprised at the beginning with the first picture tho :p

I'm not going to lie, when I first read your blogs I couldn't help but think you were a bit plasticy, and only doing it to get attention. However your posts in this thread, and articles on your website have convinced me otherwise and as little as it may matter to you, you have earned my respect

Yeah! I am working on it!

My main focus is to get better at my own gameplay and understanding before I delve into the casting seriously. I'm also working on my articulation and speech, which is made possible by streaming.

The reason I am not taking jobs now or casting replays as much is because I don't want it to appear that I feel entitled to hold these jobs just because of my looks or my gender, career, novelty, etc.. I want to actually know my shit!

At very least I would love to be a regular host for some major tournament down the road. I think I am a shoe-in for that kind of thing already. Just give me a bit more time to establish my legitimacy in the community and prove to coordinators that I can create serious content and not just whip my tits out the first chance I get in front of a crowd.


Fair enough.

Keep at it then! Look forward to seeing the results of your practice.

It means a lot to me, actually! It's an amazing feeling to be accepted in a community I love, or to change people's minds about me in the face of the often true nagging stereotype posed against me.

You rock!
